Book 47 : 2 CORINTHIANS - Chapter 005
005:001
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon
with our house which is from heaven
005:002
If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked
005:003
For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened:
not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that
mortality might be swallowed up of life
005:004
Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who
also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit
005:005
Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are
at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord
005:006
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:
005:007
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from
the body, and to be present with the Lord
005:008
Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may
be accepted of him
005:009
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ;
that every one may receive the things done in his body,
according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad
005:010
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but
we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made
manifest in your consciences
005:011
For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you
occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to
answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart
005:012
For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether
we be sober, it is for your cause
005:013
For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge,
that if one died for all, then were all dead
005:014
And that he died for all, that they which live should not
henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for
them, and rose again
005:015
Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea,
though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now
henceforth know we him no more
005:016
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old
things are passed away; behold, all things are become new
005:017
And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself
by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of
reconciliation
005:018
To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto
himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath
committed unto us the word of reconciliation
005:019
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did
beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye
reconciled to God
005:020
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that
we might be made the righteousness of God in him
